Mermaid Angel Fairy Big Eye Gothic Sketch Art + Heart Landscape Website Update...

Here is a sketch of a mermaid angel fairy gothic big eye maiden.  She has huge eyes and long flowing mermaid hair, I've also given her a little seashell necklace.  I have an idea for another mermaid painting, but I'm not sure if she's the one I want to use for it; so, back to the drawing board...

"Heart on the Horizon" Original Painting NFS

Open Edition 8"x10" Giclee Prints & Limited Edition Giclee ACEO Prints Here

I painted this piece quite some time ago.  The heart rising up from the purple mountains represents hope to me.  Hope that there is love on some level that will be a part of our lives; be it a romantic love, a friendship love, the love of pets, a familial love, and so on...  The piece has a soft surreal dreamlike impressionist feel.  The original is not for sale, but I do have this piece available as prints and ACEOs!

Every week on Tuesday, I try to list a small original, some giclee art prints, and giclee LE ACEO prints at promotional prices. Visit here to see what I have available this week!

My Photograph of a Brown Butterfly at Schabarum Park & Seascape Website Update...

I took this photograph when I was visiting Schabarum Park.  I was there at the tail end of the cherry blossom season and this lovely brown, yellow gold, and white butterfly with some red accents landed near my feet before flitting off.  I'm not sure what kind of butterfly this is, only that I was happy it spent some time flying by me and stopping for a little bit.  It had such beautiful wings, perhaps they will make their way into one of my fairy paintings at some point...  I hope that you will enjoy this photo!

Most of my art is also available on my website at http://www.lisarusso.com; however, I like to offer some art on ebay at a lower promotional start rate for the duration of the auctions...  I have started at updating and adding payment buttons to my website.  It's a very slow project, but one I am working on.

Angel Fairy Big Eye Gothic Sketch Art...

Here is a sketch of an angel fairy gothic big eye maiden.  I think she has a little bit of sadness in her eyes, I think sometimes angels see the world and are moved by all that they see.  I'm unsure if I'll paint her or not, but I did enjoy sketching her.

I'm feeling a bit better, thank you for the well wishes!  I might not have the opportunity to post tomorrow or link up with Sunday Sketches, but I'm including the link today in case you'd like to see some more sketches by some wonderful artists...

Angel Fairy Big Eye Moon Maiden Sketch Art...

Here is a sketch of an angel fairy gothic big eye moon maiden.  Her eyes are closed and she is basking in the moonlight.  I'm unsure if I'll paint her or not, but I did enjoy sketching her.

I've been feeling a little under the weather, but one of the things I learned from doing 29 faces is that even if I'm not feeling up to much, I can still sketch.  Which is good, I get a bit off when I don't have the opportunity to do art...  Tomorrow is one of the Huntington Gardens member preview plant sales, at this point I'm planning on going so I might not check in until we get back.  We might get rain though, so I'm not sure how that will go.  We desperately need the rain, but I'm hoping it happens today...

My Photograph of Pink and Yellow Flowers at Descanso Gardens & Happy Earth Day...

Happy Earth Day to you!  I took this photograph of pink and yellow flowers at Descanso Gardens.  I don't know what they're called, they were growing on an amazing tree, just covered in flower blossoms.  When I look at the spring flowers in this photo, I feel almost overwhelmed by the beauty of nature...  I hope that you will enjoy this photo!

Cherry Blossoms Flowers Sketch WIP...

Here is a work in progress sketch of some cherry blossoms that I'd like to paint.  I haven't decided yet what size to paint them, but I'm leaning towards 8"x10."  I find these flowers very beautiful, but this will be my first time painting them.
